When Drake won for “Best Hip-Hop Video” at the 2016 V.M.A.s, he wasn’t able to accept his award because he was—per Diddy—“stuck in traffic.” Of course, there could have been multiple reasons for this. The awards were in New York City, after all. Maybe Drake didn’t tack on the requisite 30 minutes for inevitable Uber back-ups and subway delays (always fill your MetroCard ahead of time, Drizzy). Or he could have been busy preparing to propose to Rihanna onstage when he presented her with the Video Vanguard Award. This was the most popular theory, anyway, since Drake donned his finest tuxedo and made it to the prom in time to give his long-rumored girlfriend the night’s biggest honor.

And you know, the Twitterverse wasn’t totally off here. Drake set up his introduction speech in the fashion of any nervous partner. “She’s someone I’ve been in love with since I was 22 years old,” he said as his eyes shifted to a blushing RiRi.

Could it be? Was he about to drop to one knee and present Rihanna with some real-life [hotline] bling? Nope; Drake is just really good at building the tension in the room. It’s okay; though, Rihanna helped ease some of the tension by going in for a kiss. The kiss was slightly awkward; however, with Drake going for her lips, and Rihanna going for cheek. Maybe these two will get it eventually! Twitter is clearly pulling for them, and there’s plenty of proof that the Drake-Rihanna love is still alive—like this billboard that Drake commissioned to congratulate Rihanna on her Video Vanguard Award, for example.

After the V.M.A.s, Drake posted this Instagram photo, which appears to be an old picture he had saved on his phone, since it looks like it was taken in Canada. It shows that all is well in the Drizzy-RiRi universe, even if no wedding bells are blissfully chiming for these two just yet. When the blessed day does arrive; however, Twitter is clearly ready for this union.
